- A small convex mirror and a large concave mirror are separated by 1.00 m, and an object is placed 1.40 m to the left of the concave mirror (Fig. P37.69). The concave mirror forms an image of this object at distance di = 25.0 cm. This image is then reflected in the convex mirror, which forms an image a distance of 8.00 cm behind the convex mirror. What is the focal length of the small convex mirror?

For an independent study project, you design an experiment to measure the speed of light. You propose to bounce laser light off a mirror that is 51.0 km due east and have it detected by a light sensor that is 129 m due south of the laser. The first problem is to orient the mirror so that the laser light reflects off the mirror and into the light sensor. (a) Determine the angle that the normal to the mirror should make with respect to due west. ANS:____º Since you can read your protractor only so accurately, the mirror is slightly misaligned and the actual angle between the normal to the mirror and due west exceeds the desired amount by 0.003°. Determine how far south you need to move the light sensor in order to detect the reflected laser light. ANS:_____ marrow_forwardTwo plane mirrors are facing each other. They are parallel, 3.00 cm apart, and 17.0 cm in length, as the drawing indicates. A laser beam is directed at the top mirror from the left edge of the bottom mirror.

Your supervisor requests that you build her a beam expander with specifications required by her experiment. A beam expander is a series of two lenses on the same principal axis. A beam of laser light covers the total area of the first lens, which focuses the parallel rays at its focal point. A second lens with a longer focal length and a larger radius is placed on the axis so that the rays expanding from the focal point of the first lens cover the area of the second lens. The outgoing rays of the second lens are parallel. The net result is that the diameter of the outgoing laser beam is larger than the original beam. Your supervisor provides you with a lens of focal length f₁ = 1.30 cm. Its diameter matches that of an incoming laser beam of diameter d₁ = 0.150 cm. She wants the beam expanded to a diameter of d₂ = 0.690 cm. She asks you to find the following. (a) the focal length ₂ necessary for the second lens (in cm) cm (b) the…arrow_forward
- Currently, nine nonhuman species of animals pass the mirror self-recognition test (MSR), which means they demonstrate the ability of self-recognition when they look at their reflection. Some of the animals on this list include the great apes, Asian elephants, bottlenose dolphins, and orca whales. In the figure, an Asian elephant is standing 3.5 m from a vertical wall. Given the dimensions shown in the drawing, what should be the minimum length of the mirror (L) in meters, such that the elephant can see the entire height of its body- from the top of its head to the bottom of its feet?

Light is reflected from the cornea, which acts like a convex mirror, and the keratometer measures the magnification of the image. The smaller the magnification, the smaller the radius of curvature of the cornea. If the light source is 12 cm from the cornea and the image magnification is 0.032, what is the radius of curvature of the cornea?arrow_forwardCurrently, nine nonhuman species of animals pass the mirror self-recognition test (MSR), which means they demonstrate the ability of self-recognition when they look at their reflection.
